October's Future Days Fund honors Home Range Wildlife Research! Nominating Ten Club member and HRWR board member Tom E. shares more about the nonprofit organization... “Based in Winthrop, WA, was founded in 2021 by two women working as wildlife biologists (and best friends), Anna Machowicz and Carmen Vanbianchi. After years of traveling the country to support wildlife conservation, they settled in the North Cascades and launched a project to study the impact of large-scale wildfires on state-endangered and federally threatened lynx. Currently, HRWR has three years of data from 15 lynx they have safely collared and tracked, and now it is time to analyze that data and report the findings to stakeholders - federal and state agencies responsible for wildfire management and wildlife recovery. Our current administration in Washington DC is not supportive of sensible stewardship of the environment and wildlife recovery. Therefore, our access to funding this year is very limited. Our hope is that the grant from the Future Days Fund, and awareness HRWR will receive from the community of Pearl Jam and Ten Club members, will help us secure the resources we need to complete our Lynx/Wildfire Project in 2026.” Learn more at 📸: Dave Moskowitz
